Somewhere in Nicaragua
We’re going to start things off today with the “First Sailfish” of the season. This beautiful fish was landed by “JZ” who was out with Capt. Lance Moss at Surfari Charters. Congratulations guys! It’s always a big deal when somebody catches the first sailfish because it means that fishing season is officially open! Everybody will be getting going out to celebrate tonight! Thanks again to Erin O’Kon for sending in the killer photo.If you want to learn more about fishing and surfing with Surfari Charters, click on the photo and go check out their website. If you have a little time, I highly recommend going through the “Captain’s Log”.
How about a quick plug for our good friend Tyler Bliss who recently released his first Nicaragua surf movie called “El Centro”. It was shot over the course of 3 years and we have to say we are impressed with the final cut. Nice work Tyler. Click the image above to get yours!
What’s happening everyone! This is the NSR family bringing you the Thursday surf report. We took a family trip to the beach. The ladies took out the pangas, but the boys wanted to get into that clear water and check out what was going on down there. The swell has still yet to hit, it was barley waist high. Check out what we came up with our under water adventures!
As we were swimming out to the reef “Guineo” snagged this sick shot of a wave passing over him. Don’t be deceived, the under water view makes the water look angry, but this wave was only knee high. Sick shot though, huh?
Unfortunately we didn’t spear that many fish today, but we definitely did get a lot of sick under water shots like this one of the bottom. It was so ridiculously clear today, we felt like we were in a pool!
This is an up close shot of the reef. If you look close enough those are urchins burrowed in those holes. Sweet artsy shot “Guineo.”
So, we swam all the way down the beach to the end of this point. “Godfather” thought it would be better if we climbed up onto the rocks and walked back. Well, for the experienced “Godfather” it was a cake walk. “Guineo” and “Chewy” struggled a little with the rock climb falling off these rock a few times. Good experience though….
Last shot of the day was our favorite. The graphic designer, “Chewy” was amping on the texture. Well, we’re out for today. The swell has got to be here tomorrow so check back. We’ve been hankerin’ for some big waves!!!!

FROM THE ARCHIVES
Early indications are that the NSR boys are going to give Surfari Charters a run for their money this year when it comes to fishing this year. The recent weather pattern of offshores in the morning and onshores in the afternoon has really brought in the fish. The NSR crew went out on the “Manana”..
After we had some good waves from yesterday today we went out for good surfing but we found onshore wind when we got there. There is still some swell in the water but we didn’t scored today, so tomorrow we are going to wake up early and will score for sure. It’s head high on..
OK, here we are on Sunday and we just got a new crew into the NSR Beach House. Left to Right we’ve got Larry, Johnny, Bobby and Lester-y. The waves are running a fun sized chest to head high. The crew hired out Roberto for the day and went home with some killer shots. Check..
